On November 1st, Michel PONS participated to the 10e Programming Meeting of the CAST Division of AIChE where he proposed to organize the 3rd US CAPE-OPEN event at AIChE 2006 Annual Meeting. The organization of the 3rd US Annual CAPE-OPEN meeting as a Topical Conference within AIChE 2006 Annual Meeting was accepted, thanks to the support of Jim DAVIS (Associate Vice Chancellor – Information Technology – UCLA) and of Vince GRASSI (Air Products). Jim holds the position of 10e Programming Coordinator for 2005 and Vince the position of 10e Programming Coordinator for 2006.

CAPE-OPEN Unit Operation socket in SuperPro Designer®

Advanced Process Engineering Co-Simulator (APECS)

Model-centric process engineering

DyOS is a software tool for the solution of dynamic optimization problems.DyOS allows the model to be accessed via a so-called Equation Set Object (ESO) interface, a standard developed in the CAPE-OPEN project.

CAPE-OPEN at TOTAL

Use of CAPE-OPEN at BP as of 2008

Air Liquide use of CAPE-OPEN

This report, made at the CAPE-OPEN 2008 European Conference, covers actions related to CAPE-OPEN between 2004 and 2008. Air Liquide has been leveraging on CAPE-OPEN to streamline the process of developing and distributing thermodynamic expertise within its engineering functions.

CAPE-OPEN Property Package for ChemSep

CAPE-OPEN Unit Operation socket in UniSim Design

Honeywell Process Solutions was awarded funding within the Consultancy Services scheme. Outcome of this action was reported by Martin ROSS, UniSim Product Manager, at the CAPE-OPEN 2014 Annual Meeting, held on September 10-11, 2014 in Mörfelden, Germany.

Consultancy Services: how does it work?

The purpose of the Consultancy Services scheme is to provide assistance, in the form of access to a specialist consultant and funding, in the new implementation of CAPE-OPEN interfaces or the improvement of existing interface implementations. Look out for the next round of service requests and apply.

Dynamic simulation and numerical analysis tool

The simulation environment Diana (Dynamic simulation and numerical analysis tool) performs the numerical analysis of problems such as the ones usually found in process engineering.

One of the main aspects of Diana is that it relies on the CAPE-OPEN Numerical interfaces. The models handled by the solvers within the numerical kernel of Diana, or plugged in Diana, are object-oriented models based on the CAPE-OPEN Equation Set Object (ESO) concept.
